I use one because it is much easier to tap once than to have to type anything (like "weather").

For one, you could more easily get on no-fly lists, since more data about you means more data to match against whatever secret crterion. Even if it is all false positives.

Then the "two quarters" rule is stricter. We have fulfilled a stricter criterion for a recession. Whether the NBER contradicts us is irrelevant. Less value is going around in the economy.

And why would more obscure "bad guys" cover for each other? How does the game theory change? It does not. I perceive the penalties for losing a prisoner's dilemma are much larger than the potential payoff.

The way I see it: there is no way an individual can win over an empire. If one is engaging in activities to the detriment of said empire, they must consider the risk of being snuffed at any time, let alone betrayed. See McAfee, Assange, and

I rephrase then: would you do something other than what the feds ask you (malice-free compliance), when you have your freedom on the line?

Due to inflation, the central banks slowed lending to the government, driving rates up. More expensive credit means less free offers attempting to lure customers in.

Indeed. There's no "more illegal" than "illegal".

Suppose an adversarial example is recognized correctly by a human, yet a model recognizes it wrongly. Therefore, the model uses other information than humans in order to classify, and the information it uses is wrong. Therefore, the model n

It also made a large amount of money for those who knew how to walk the fine line between profitability and adoption.

The problem will solve itself. People unwilling to sign up for a mobile plan for playing a game will automatically boycott the likes of Overwatch 2, which will result in revenue lost (perhaps to competing games that allow prepaid cards). I

I agree. Big Tech can afford to wall their gardens and close off their ecosystems. That is because they have billions of users, and profits merely require keeping the users. But services undergoing adoption need to offer disruptive advantag

For instance, an exponential decay is a bad model of a stepwise function. So, while everything is a computer, not everything computes what you want it to. For purposes of human life, only a device easy to control is a computer.

Indeed. Your comment prepared me for the experience, but the ball did not drop in my case until taeric's comment (which incidentally missed your point). To taeric: Anything IS an analog computer of itself. Doing it for real completely

Your comment made me realize a chemical reaction is an analog computer computing every parameter of the chemical reaction at once.

But you see, listening to people would be politics. Why do politics when you can just selfishly squeeze what you can before you get kicked out of office? After me, the flood.

A drug-related pardon I'd like to see: Ross Ulbricht. His sentence "sends a message" to me that there is no justice anymore. Same with Assange. There is no press anymore, just political mouthpieces.

There are two ways government influences the economy: monetary inflation and taxation. Whether prices get higher (government bidding up prices following monetary inflation) or taxes increase, the effect is the same: the good/service pr

How much time would you have to brake, if the car ahead came to a sudden stop (for example, due to a crash)? If less than one second, you are almost surely tailgating.

I don't go to church, but I interpret the silliness less literally. For instance, replace God and Jesus with the Superego and Id respectively. You'd be surprised at how much sense some quotes make. But religion is so vague, it&#x2
